In its 31st edition, CASACOR Peru inaugurates a new stage. For the first time, the show is built from scratch, consolidating a format that rethinks ephemeral architecture in the city. The setting is the Jockey Club of Peru, a space of strong symbolic weight that today gains new meaning as a starting point for a contemporary perspective, where the presence of the landscape and the breadth of the route transform the experience from the very first moment.
Under the concept "Mind and Heart", the edition proposes a reflection on how we conceive, integrate and design spaces. Along more than 11,000 sqm, dozens of professionals develop a fluid sequence of projects where architecture intertwines with the natural surroundings and the visitor takes on an active role along the route. Houses, lofts, apartments, contemplation spaces, gardens, wellness proposals, conceptual installations and curatorial areas build a broad, precise and diverse narrative.

The experience extends beyond architecture. Two restaurants, cafes, a bar and commercial spaces accompany the circuit, while the presence of the Ann Sullivan Center of Peru — through its store — reaffirms the social commitment that has defined CASACOR for more than three decades. Part of the funds raised is allocated to this institution, which since 1979 has transformed the lives of people with special abilities and their families.
This edition also incorporates a fundamental milestone: it will be a 100% accessible show for people with motor and hearing disabilities, expanding the reach of architecture as an inclusive tool and setting a necessary standard for the future.
After more than 30 years of leadership by Verónica Torres de Haaker and Elena Benavides, CASACOR Peru begins a continuity with renewed vision under the direction of Julio Pérez-Novoa. This new stage does not seek to break with what has been built, but rather to refine it, expand it and project it with greater clarity, consolidating CASACOR as a cultural platform that transcends the exhibition character.

The presence of the Ann Sullivan Center of Peru acquires an even more significant dimension in this edition. Since 1979, the institution has sustained exemplary work in the training and inclusion of people with special abilities, working in close collaboration with their families and building a model that transcends borders. Its participation in CASACOR is not manifested only through its store, but as an essential part of the purpose that articulates the show.
In this context, this edition pays special tribute to Liliana Mayo, as well as to Miki Miro Quesada, Titi Belmont and the entire team of volunteers who, with constant and silent dedication, have accompanied the growth of the institution over decades.
The proposal expands with a Bazaar of nearly 300 sqm, designed by the Cotacero studio, which brings together a curation of design products, tableware, artworks and objects that dialogue with the spirit of the show. Each purchase represents a direct contribution to the Ann Sullivan Center of Peru through a percentage of sales, extending the impact of the experience beyond the route.

Over more than three decades, CASACOR Peru has consolidated a trajectory that transcends the exhibition character to become an active agent in the transformation of the city. More than a thousand professionals — including architects, designers and artists — have participated in its different editions, shaping hundreds of projects that explored new ways of conceiving spaces.
Along this journey, the show has intervened in and recovered historic mansions, republican houses and disused buildings as emblematic venues, temporarily reactivating them and returning them to the urban conversation from a contemporary perspective.

Added to this is the invaluable work of artisans from different regions of the country, whose participation has made it possible to integrate techniques, crafts and knowledge that enrich each edition with a material and cultural depth that does not respond to an ornamental logic, but rather to a living continuity of making. Each edition has been, in this sense, an opportunity to reinterpret the built heritage and project it into the present with a renewed and precise reading.

CASACOR is the largest and most influential platform for architecture, interior design and design in Latin America. Founded in Brazil in 1987, it has established itself as an international reference that transcends the exhibition format to become a space for thought, experimentation and connection between creative disciplines.
With a presence in cities such as São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Asunción, Santa Cruz de la Sierra and Lima, among others, CASACOR articulates a regional network that brings together thousands of professionals and brands around a common vision: to explore new ways of inhabiting the contemporary world.
Each edition unfolds in real spaces — often heritage buildings or urban sites undergoing transformation — that are temporarily intervened by architects, designers and artists. This real scale allows the proposals to transcend the conceptual and become concrete experiences, where the public walks through, understands and relates to design in a direct way.

Its relevance lies in three fundamental dimensions. On one hand, its ability to activate and revalue urban spaces, integrating architecture and city into a single discourse. On the other, its role as a showcase for the industry, where materials, technologies and systems are presented in applied contexts, rather than as an isolated exhibition. Finally, its cultural contribution: CASACOR functions as a living laboratory that anticipates transformations in the way of conceiving space, incorporating themes such as sustainability, well-being, social integration and new dynamics of use.
Over almost four decades, CASACOR has managed to consolidate a community that connects creativity, industry and public on a scale that is difficult to replicate. Its impact is not limited to the duration of each exhibition, but is projected onto the city, onto professional practice, and onto the way we understand architecture as an active part of contemporary life.
